I am running in 24x7 using "Run Program or Document file"
The command line is"D:\StagingArea\Fin\FinXlsV2\_BI\SaleableTonnesOracle.xls"

The Excel file runnning macro and is update from other Excel Files.
When I am using 24x7 I see a Exec.exe process in task manager without any activity on it. The file is not updated.

Try running
"cmd /C start D:\StagingArea\Fin\FinXlsV2\_BI\SaleableTonnesOracle.xls"

This will run the Windows command processor and that in turn will start Excel for you.

Also, you may need to disable Excel security settings and allow running macros without displaying any security confirmation prompts.
